Long Island, New York, a boutique apartment building under the Four Seasons Hotel. Omega Hunter Nick Fury's private residence. This is Nick's own personal space.
As the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., he is far less beautiful than what he sees on the surface.
There are as many obligations as there are rights, which is almost an everlasting truth. Of course, if you don't care about your future reputation, or if you don't have any faith in your heart, you can certainly ignore this paragraph.
Rights and obligations have been formed in the primary human civilization society tens of thousands of years ago. The strongest soldiers of that era enjoyed the best food among the clan.
Have the most spouses and live in the best house.
But all these fighters enjoy is not free. He needs to abandon his life when the ethnic group needs his sacrifice.
Maybe it was in a war with other tribes, maybe when a dangerous prey was besieged.
Even if human civilization changes, this unwritten rule is still circulating. Even for some reasons, under certain conditions.
Some people, or a specific group, enjoy the standard treatment, but fail to perform the matching obligations.
Then one day they will spit out what they shouldn't get, maybe the time will be longer, but the longer the time, the more they pay the price.
Nick Fury, a veteran. He had participated in the Vietnam War and even rumored that he had participated in World War II. He was a by-product of the Captain America soldier plan.
But Nick Fury's files are top-secret data, and it is impossible for outsiders to really know how much merit Nick Fury's legend has done in his life.
He has experienced many battles and choices unimaginable in his life. When you need to sacrifice some people to save more people.
Nick will sacrifice those people without hesitation, this is not his cold blood. It is the responsibility that he must bear in his place.
It may be cruel, even cold and ruthless, but believe me, this is a decision that must be made by those in high positions.
A good person in power must not only earn enough praise, but also have the courage to bear more infamy.
But all this does not mean that Nick Fury is an animal without emotion.
In fact, as a veteran who came out of the **** sea of corpses, Nick knew the importance of every life better.
Some people say that too much war and killing will make people lose themselves and forget all the beauty and warmth.
But at the same time, more wars and killings will make other people understand the importance of peace and love life and the beauty of this world.
Nick Fury belongs to the latter. What is hidden under his gloomy single eye is not the arrogance of power, but more expectations for this world.
He expects the world to become better and safer.
But just as coins have two sides, there are words with flowers and darkness with light.
Everyone yearning for the bright, she represents all the good in the world.
The dark ones are discouraged by everyone. Because if you want to dissolve in the darkness, you are afraid that you will fall into it, and finally you will be unable to extricate yourself.
Even the bright-minded can hardly escape from all this.
On the issue of life's most critical choice, when light and darkness choose the side, Nick places himself in the latter.
The actions of SHIELD are not all fair and upright, and sometimes it is necessary to refrain from resorting to means for the purpose. If this terrible authority does not have a suitable leader.
It will become the most terrifying institution in the world, even the Gestapo was far behind.
Not everyone can become a legend like Peggy Carter. (Note: One of the founders of SHIELD, Captain America ’s liaison officer and girlfriend.)
When Nick took over S.H.I.E.L.D., it already felt that the organization had begun to slowly break away from its original intention.
It is no longer the institution that was created to protect the world, or to protect the world and fight against evil is no longer the main purpose of SHIELD.
It has become a doll of great people, a colosseum of politics and power. Everyone wants to come in and take a kick, and everyone wants to take a slice of this huge organization.
But they didn't really know how much trouble their actions would cause for SHIELD, just as Li Jie hated before.
There are always people in this world who are self-righteous and do nothing except to provoke conflicts and create tension.
When Nick took over S.H.I.E.L.D., this organization was already full of holes, and he became a tinker for the broken ship.
This one-eyed dragon always has his own way. He can always rescue the ship when the ship is about to sink or is about to hit the reef.
He once thought he had succeeded, but since that meeting in Washington, he knew what he had done was just a joke.
There are still a variety of nails in the SHIELD Bureau, and intelligence, especially important intelligence, leaks out like running water.
The X-Men ’s plan was rejected, and he faced more and more problems. Nick deeply felt that his life choices were sometimes a mistake.
But as long as there is such an idea, as long as three minutes later, he will forget it, because he is Nick Fury, a persevering soldier.
But even the hardest steel has bends, and there are moments when the powerful warriors are defeated.
When the report on TV that provoked the relationship between mutants and ordinary people appeared, Nick could not but tear up that big-mouthed McCauley.
As a real person in power, he knows more about how complicated the situation will be after these breaking things.
But there are no fewer members of Congress who hold prejudice against mutants, and there is more prejudice against mutants among the people.
For their votes and approval ratings, politicians will conform to public opinion. As for whether the public opinion is right or wrong, they do not care.
Anyway, what the voters want, look! I did it according to your request, please don't blame me if anything happens.
Because this is the request of your pig brains!
Nick needs to drink a bottle of spirits, but the place to drink is not at SHIELD. Because there, he must always look like a stable winner.
Because only in this way can he ensure that his subordinates have enough confidence to obey his orders.
This private secret apartment is his only quiet place, where he can fill himself with a bottle of whiskey.
Don't worry about anyone accusing him. Of course, out of Nick's own character, he is basically impossible to make such a crazy move.
He will stop after drinking up to three glasses of pure whiskey because his work requires him to keep his decision awake.
But there are exceptions to everything, such as when he was with Frank, an old friend who had put his life back to back during the Vietnam War.
In front of him, Nick could occasionally relax and remove some masks.
A person who has no friends, or who can have emotions, is sad. Because whether it is joy or sorrow, it has little meaning for him.
Nick and Frank are staying in their private apartment on Long Island. Almost half a bottle of Brazilian sugar cane wine has been drunk by the two.
"Do you know where I hate this job most?" Nick drank about four glasses of wine, but he wanted to vent a lot.
"Just I know a lot of secrets, but no one else knows. These secrets don't become my capital to show off, but will push me into an awkward position because of some idiot's decision."
Frank did not answer. He added a mint leaf to the sugarcane wine.
"Sometimes I'm thinking, maybe I should die on the battlefield in Vietnam. I don't like that war, no matter before or after, it will not be my glorious deed."
"People will only remember that American soldiers massacred civilians and abused women, and of course there were inhumane chemical warfare. And those **** politicians who made all these decisions lived well."
"They asked the president to apologize, and then retired quietly to enjoy their old age, but our name is to be nailed to the post of shame."
"Do you know why I haven't died yet?" Nick said a bit of a load-bearing topic.
"I think your thoughts should be the same as mine." Frank stirred the sugarcane wine with mint leaves and said finally.
"We all expect the most heroic death in a great and glorious war. We actually will do nothing but kill. When the world doesn't need us to kill, we will be the saddest."
"We've been killing people all our lives ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Sometimes for the people, most of the time for the government, and now I quit because someone told me that I can do it for faith and justice." Frank took a sip of mint sugar cane wine.
"When one day this world no longer needs me to kill people, I think I will leave the last bullet to myself, and I believe you are the same."
"Respect this **** world." Nick did not say whether he agreed with Frank's statement, but raised his glass.
"Respect this beautiful and ugly world." Frank and Nick touched the glass, and the two drank the wine in the dry glass.
"I'm going to form a team of first-class heroes." Nick said and started talking about more serious topics. "And I'm seriously understaffed. There are many things in the world that ordinary people can't deal with. For example, the one you solve in Hell's Kitchen."
"I don't care how you solve it, and I need help now, I think you should understand what I mean." Nick Fury stared at Frank tightly.
Instead of answering Nick's question, Frank asked a question that seemed completely unrelated. "Do you think everything is still under control?" (To be continued.)
